Venue: Royal Armouries, Leeds
Dates: 9 & 10 November 2023
Venue: Royal Armouries, Leeds
We listened to your feedback from last year’s event and have focused on bringing you the best ECC agenda to date via eight insightful learning streams. We are of course bringing back some firm favourites including our ‘advanced’ and ‘general’ streams, but we have introduced three new streams including ‘advanced nursing’.
A few themes we are tackling his year will include ‘Driving and Maintaining Clinical Standards on the front line’, ‘What should I know about extracorporeal therapy?’ and ‘How to establish a senior nursing team’. We are welcoming world-renowned speakers including Simon Cook, Tim Trevail, Chloe Fay, Dan Tipney, Jenny Guyat and Erica Reineke.
We are confident our 2023 programme offers something for everyone, no matter what stage of your ECC career you are at.
• General | This stream is suitable for GP vets dealing with emergencies, vets starting out in ECC or RVN with some ECC experience. |
• Foundations of ECC | This stream is suitable for new graduates interested in ECC, ACAs, student RVNs or RVNs just starting in ECC. |
• Advanced | This stream is suitable for experienced ECC vets – those enrolled in or in possession of an ECC Certificate, as well as vets pursuing specialist training programs. This stream is also highly suitable for RVNs pursuing a VTS(ECC) |
• Limited Enrolment (non-practical) ** NEW ** | This stream consists of small group lectures and workshops, aimed at Vets & RVN with a special interest in the subject. An additional fee applies for Limited Enrolment sessions. |
• Case Reports | A lunch time session dedicated to presentations from colleagues enrolled in specialist training programs. |
• Advanced Nursing ** NEW ** | This stream is aimed at experienced RVNs, perhaps those working in Referral Centres or studying for advanced qualifications. |
• Limited Enrolment (practical) | This stream consists of more practical small group sessions, aimed at enhancing delegates’ skillsets in the more technical aspects of ECC. These sessions would in general be suitable for both Vets & RVNs. An additional fee applies for Limited Enrolment sessions. |
• Interactive Case Based Clinical **NEW** | In this stream, all lectures will predominantly feature question polls for the audience to answer relating to various cases spanning a range of different emergency related topics. These will be suitable for all vets or RVNs with some ECC clinical experience. |

Read MoreEmergency presentations often involve the sudden imposition of critically ill patients with complex needs into our clinics. Many of these patients will need urgent stabilizing and investigative procedures to be performed simultaneously, often with dire consequences if these do not happen in a timely fashion. These situations require the coordination of multiple challenging components such as decision-making, knowledge recall, technical tasks and communication. Without understanding and prior preparation of how to deal with these situations, both as an individual and as a team, disaster will often ensue…

Read MoreWe all need a certain level of pressure to perform optimally – to make the right decisions, work effectively in teams and carry out complex tasks. However, excessive pressure causes our performance to deteriorate. In this session we will discuss the psychological and behavioural aspects of pressure on our ability to perform individually and as part of a team. We will cover practical tools to optimise pressure and to manage excessive pressure. The session includes communication under pressure, use of cognitive aids, equipment management, training for high pressure and pressure relief valves.

Read MoreImposter syndrome is ubiquitous amongst vets (and allied clinical professionals) of all skillsets. No matter how many years you spend in the profession, the spectre of doubt seems inevitable. The first thing we need to understand about imposter syndrome is that you’re not the only one struggling with it, in fact you’re so far from unique it would likely surprise you! But people tend not to talk about it. Success, paradoxically, creates a cycle of self-doubt for individuals experiencing imposter syndrome. Even significant milestones in a professionals’ career can be reformulated to an imposter narrative. We may experience fear that others will see the truth of our abilities – in essence, that we will be seen for something that we’re not. These cognitive distortions can erode our belief in our ability to succeed or set challenging future career goals for ourselves. Without realising it we may become trapped in a maintenance cycle, whereby our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours interact via a synergistic interplay. In this session, I share some simple practical ideas to help you feel more confident about your abilities, and to help you manage if things don’t go quite to plan. The session is informed, therapeutically, by both Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Narrative Therapy. As such, delegates will be able apply techniques from both of these approaches to help dispel factors that perpetuate imposter syndrome and minimise their possible effects.

Read MoreNursing our recumbent patients comes with several challenges and recumbency can affect multiple body systems potentially leading to poorer outcomes for our patients. We will look at the reasons for recumbency and the impact this has on body systems and how these contribute to patient morbidity and mortality. Our nursing interventions for these patients will be reviewed including support of the respiratory system, urinary bladder management, musculoskeletal system and if there is evidence supporting our interventions as a nursing team.

Read MoreWhat`s in a handover? A catch up about the weekend, a chat to start the day or a well-developed process that leads to pertinent information being shared and received about the patients in our care? Efficient handovers share relevant information to allow you to continue looking after the patient without reducing the level of care provided on an ongoing basis. We will look at how to conduct an effective handover and highlight information that should be passed along as well as verbal versus written process. We will also look at scenarios from the speakers experience where this has not happened and has led to failure in patient safety.

Read MoreThe use of feeding tubes in the delivery of nutrition (calories and nutrients) it is an important aspect to consider as part of the nutritional assessment. Consideration should be given to calorific value required, the diet to be used (what diets are available), the form in which the diet is to be delivered, whether the animal is able to consume, digest and absorb the diet, and the composition of the nutrients within the diet.

These advanced life-saving therapies are an emerging part of the practice of emergency and critical care for animals with acute kidney injury, auto-immune diseases and poisonings. Case examples will be used to illustrate which patients may benefit from these advanced modalities.

Read MoreBecoming a leader within a team can sometimes be a daunting prospect. Many of us can become leaders without any formal training or qualifications. As such, there are many aspects to consider – in particular, how to encourage the growth of others without neglecting your own. In profession-long learning, clinical supervision is regarded as one of the major components for change in professional competencies and expertise, widely considered a distinct competency at the centre of professional training and systematic evaluation of clinical practice. This session will help explore different forms of leadership, with a lens on developing the best supervisory practice that is not only managerial, but also educative and supportive. Supervisors experience high degrees of transference, psychological projection and, frequently, burnout. Accordingly, the session will include some practical strategies to manage and contain some of these psychological phenomena, whilst maintaining healthy boundaries with your colleagues.
